I definantly feel a difference between the 35 series & 40 series that are on my SPG. However the 35 series are yokohama's parada's which are a 300+ treadwear tire & the 40 series are RA-1's which are somewhere in the 0-60 treadwear number.
I have also always felt that a tire gets weaker as it gets older so comparing what a 205-55 feels like with 20K miles of use then going to a brand new 205-50 will not only feel better due to the different aspect ration (I feel it's not a function of wheel size) but because the trad/tires have zero heat cycles on them & also no miles :)
